Here at Odysseys Unlimited, we design our tours specifically for small groups of just 12 to 24 guests. It’s our specialty and it’s all that we’ve ever done since we opened our doors more than 25 years ago. On an Odysseys small group tour, you’ll enjoy benefits simply unavailable to travelers on conventional tours of 30, 40, or more. Watch our new video to learn more. #guidedsmallgrouptravel #travelforseniors #odysseysunlimited
Where in the World Wednesday
OK, Facebook friends … for this week’s #WhereInTheWorldWednesday challenge, can you tell us where this video was shot?
Here’s a hint: Named for the 4th-century missionary believed to have founded it, the basilica on the island in this video houses many frescoes, the earliest of which date back to the 14th-century CE. #travelquiz #travelinspiration #guidedsmallgrouptravel #travelforseniors

Thank you to Odysseys guests Brian K. and Emily T. for capturing this special moment on our Tanzania Adventure small group tour! #elephantfriday #safaritour #smallgrouptravel #africanelephant #tanzaniatravel
Thanks to the small size of our tour groups, Odysseys guests enjoy experiences that are simply not available to guests on larger tours, like this visit to a communal rice farm in Laos. There – under the tutelage of local farmers – we weave bamboo, process sugar cane, harvest rice (shown in the video below taken by Odysseys employee Steven C.), and more.
